Nish Kumar is a critically acclaimed comic, who has won rave reviews and prestigious award nominations for his stand up. Away from the comedy circuit, he is a regular on TV panel shows like, 8 out of 10 Cats Does Countdown, Live at the Apollo and Taskmaster and regularly presents programmes like the News Quiz on BBC Radio 4.

Angela Harnett leads a masterclass in Italian cooking, as she makes Gnocchi from scratch with roasted red pepper and chilli pesto. (You, of course, can buy yours at Waitrose). The meal is paired with a delicious Triade Bianco.

Nish Kumar brings plenty of laughter to the table, discussing food; the best meal he’s had in India, family; his parents' ploy to make him grow up and friendship; what he really thinks of Ed Gamble and James Acaster.
